that people on these boards focus solely on "race" as a major problem without realizing that Western culture that spawned it, IS THE REAL PROBLEM. Taking a gun away from a killer, is not disabling the killer. A knife, fist, foot, elbow, bat, etc. are all weapons that can be used to kill. You have to disable (eliminate) the killer.

As long as people focus on "race" then in reality the killer (Western/ European worldview) is making the people focus on strategies to ban Saturday night Specials while the killer has a stockade of uzis, AK-47's, MAC-10's, etc (colonialism, imperialism, classicism, universalism, humanism, religion, etc.)that he has been using to kill everyone around him.

"Activism is the practice of using an internal, self-determining source of power to live one's life and/or enact some sort of change. Power is the ability to define reality, while self-determination is to decide or define one's self. Therefore activism, is not simply something done to right some wrong or to fight some cause but rather it is a way of life. Activism is the way of life where one can define self and change anything that may impede or control the reality that one chooses to live."-Solarus
